Merging intensity with melody, 3 Years Hollow plans to spread their
rabid Quad Cities fanbase throughout the rest of the US and beyond,
with an upcoming tour (alongside Saving Abel - with additional dates
to be added), and their upcoming release, 'The Cracks,' which drops on
February 11, 2014. The twelve-track release will be the group's
full-length debut for Imagen Records, and was produced by none other
than Sevendust guitarist/songwriter Clint Lowery (Lowery also guests
on a track, "For Life").

"We want to play melodic hard rock," explains singer Jose Urquiza.
"That's the music that brought us together. At the same time, we all
have drastically different influences from progressive rock to hair
metal to pop punk."

Comprised of Urquiza, Tony Reeves (guitar), Neil Kuhlman (guitar), Dex
Digga (bass), and Chris Cushman (drums), 3 Years Hollow has already
enjoyed success on such stations as Sirius XM Octane, which added the
song, "Remember" (of which a remastered version resides on 'The
Cracks') to their rotation. Soon after, the song hit #1 on the
channel, while all of the group's videos have attracted nearly 500,000
YouTube views.

Also included is the aforementioned "For Life," of which Urquiza
describes as "It's about a person who is struggling and has fallen
away from the world alone. You can see the damage and the demons the
person deals with on a daily basis. However, all of a sudden, there is
hope instead of despair. The final message is to pull away from the
demons, stand strong against them, and keep them out for the rest of
your life. It was such an honor to bring that track to life with
Clint."

Instead of setting up shop at a single recording studio, it turns out
that the sessions for 'The Cracks' occurred at several different
studios, including Groovemaster Studios (where Disturbed, Sevendust,
and Pop Evil have all recorded) in Chicago, IL, Trailer Studios in St.
Louis, MO, and the band's own studio, Real Trax Recording, in
Davenport, IA.According to Urquiza, it is also the realness of his
lyrics that resonate greatly with fans. "Everything I write about is a
completely personal experience or something I've witnessed or
experienced myself. I talk about things I've seen or experienced. I
want to give everybody something real."
